Move to Nova Scotia, Canada get the car imported through BC, and go to the dmv and pay $495 for a "specialty/Duty" registration. There are 4 skylines here that I have seen including an R34, and I'm not lying. Way to many rules and regulations in the US could never live there.

I live in bc and I read the import vehicle brochure at the airport. it states that a car must be at least 15 yrs old to import.

Im still not sure of how the whole thing works.

maybe that r34 u saw was modded?

yea skylines are pretty cool to see, i wouldnt want to spend money to bring one over here unless i was super rich and didnt know what i wanted to spend money on. an r34 was in town acouple of months ago, he was is some car club named 16niss, supposedely is street legal but i kinda find it hard to beleive.

my buddy has one. its pretty nice. definitely worth it for the price (instead of buying a honda from a dealership), but I think skylines are overdone. everyone wants one. kinda nice to be unique.

at one point i was thinking of putting a rb20 into my 240sx. rare where i live at least.
